Add the ratios 3:1 = 4
divide perimeter 128 by 4 = 32
multiply this by each ratio so 3:1 becomes 96length:32width
remember there are two lengths and two widths in the perimeter so divide by 2 to find the length = 48

Answer:  The length of the given rectangle is 51 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the ratio of length to width in a rectangle is 3 to 1 and the perimeter of the rectangle is 136 feet.

We are to find the length of the rectangle.

Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be 3x feet and 1x feet respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

2(3x+1x)=136\\\\\Rightarrow 2\times4x=136\\\\\Rightarrow 8x=136\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{136}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow x=17.

Therefore, width = 17 feet and length = 17 × 3 = 51 feet.

Thus, the length of the given rectangle is 51 feet.

Somebody pls!! “Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-<br> intercept form.”
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

y = 3/5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope (rise / run of the line) and b is y-intercept (y value of where the line intersects with the y-axis.

The line is rising up 3 and run to the right 5 and so it's slope is 3/5. The line intersects with the y-axis at a y value of 5 and so it's y-intercept is 5.

Therefore, your answer in slope-intercept form is y = 3/5x + 5.
